Meet Samantha

- Has a car
I’m 28 years old and I have 15 years experience babysitting and working with children. I’m was a lead teacher at a daycare center until I had my baby girl who is now almost two in December. I wanted a more flexible schedule to stay home with her as much as possible. Sometimes she does come with me but I can also leave her with family. I can do meal prep, change diapers, potty train and bedtime/naptime routine. I love being outside and taking “field trips” with the kids I babysit for. I have plenty of references as well.

Samantha is fantastic! I was so nervous to have anyone babysit my son, but she came over with confidence and calm. She is experienced, and it shows. My son is 8 months, and she kept right to his schedule perfectly. I setup an on-going weekly arrangement immediately, and I recommend her!

Sam is such a wonderful person and a great caregiver! She has been taking care of our baby girl for a few days a week since I went back to work. Sam is very caring, compassionate, and engaging. She has also been very accommodating, even on a short notice. We have never had any issues with her and would love to have her around for as long as she can babysit for us. We highly recommend her!

Samantha recently watched my daughter while my husband and I went out for a date night. She was amazing! It was a relief to find someone like her, because I have a hard time trusting other people to watch my child. She kept me updated and sent me pictures throughout the night so I didn't have to worry, and everything went smoothly. Would definitely recommend her!
